URING the next three days pitchers of the Washing- N i GRIFFS 10 TACKLE HARD-HITTING CLUB [Tribe Leading League With Stick—White Sox Grab Ten-Inning Tussle. BY JOHN B. KELLER. ton staff will have plenty | to do if statistics concern- ing the Indians mean anything.| This Cleveland ball club that is scheduled to open a series of three games in Griffith Stadium tomor- row afternoon is figured the hard- est hitting ball club in the Ameri- can League at present, and has driven more hurlers from the slab than any of its rivals in the cir- cuit. Something to keep the fling- ers of the Nationals right busy, it would seem. The Indlans have been moving at a swift pace this season. Despite many casualties that have had Manager Roger Peckinpaugh changing his line- up from day to day, the Tribe has managed to stick right around the top of the league. Hard hitting, of course, has had much t> do with this, but the * Indians have much good pitching and | M: probably are somewhat better afleld than they were last year. With its regular team in action the Tribe is almost the same as it was in | M2 1920 in playing personnel. Lately, though, the veteran Joe Sewell has been o forced from third base by illness, there have been frequent changes in the out- fleld and at shortstop, and Lew Fonsect ‘who led the league at batting last sea son, still finds it impossible to perform [\lhrly at first base. He was a pretty 1lI'man last Winter. Fonseca very likely will start at first base against the Nationals, though, and Johnny Hodapp will be at second. On the other side of the infield Cleveland has been using recently Jonah Gold- mau, a clever fielding shortstop, but not a sturdy hitter, and John Burnett, who is filling Joe Sewell's shoes well at | third. Burnett has been the property of the Indians some time, although last year he was farmed to New Orleans, where he batted above .300. Goldman was recalled from Albany. ‘That old reliable, Charley Jamieson, the young Eddie Morgan, Earl Averill, ‘who starred for the Tribe last season ‘when he first came up, and Bob Seeds, a ‘hase from Kansas City, have been Manager Peck this Spring. Luke Sewell has done most of the catching. Wesley Ferrell, the sensation of big league pitching in 1929; Willis Hudlin and Melvin Harder, who was recalled from New Orleans, have done some good 1-t0-0 win in eight and one-half innings. There would have been no overtime. UMP” HADLEY opened fire for the Nationals. “Bump” stuck around until one was out in the elghu: inning. He was lifted after Reynolds had opened the round with a single and been sent to second by Shires’ sacrifice. During his term ) BW" ylelded seven hits and seemed good as before when he was 7lnk¢d Pred Marberry did the relieving, and Fred did not seem strong at the start of his work. He issued a pass after getting a second out, then was reached for a single by Smith, who had twice boiore made base hits off Hadley, and it was only a fine peg to the plate by Rice, who fielded Smith's hit, that kept a run away from the Chisox. Fred was found for a hit by the first ml.n’ up in the ninth and a sacrifice and in- field out moved suh’y to third before Metzler was erased. Pred was well battered in the tenth. Reynolds began the round with a single and after Shires went out scored as ‘Watwood thumped a triple. Kamm fol- lowed with a single and the Chisox were two runs to good, plenty for :hem with the way Lyons was pitch- ng. UT that tenth inning never should have happened. The Nationals were too generous in handing runs to the White Sox. A single by Cissell at the start of the game was followed by a wild chuck by Hadley when he tried to cut down Bill at second after picking up Metzier's bounder. Then Myer made a two-base wild throw after picking up Reynolds' sacrificial bunt and later Spencer dropped Bluege's throw to the. plate, that if held, would have vetired Metzler. Two unearned runs. Smith opened the seventh with a single and continued to second when ‘West booted. Jolley batted for Riddle and singled to score Smith, but Smith could not have counted from first on the hit. The next three batters were retired in order, the first two of them Eoppin( out. S0 Smith never would ave reached home. One unearned FF Lyons the Nationals got 11 hits and pass. A single by West, Rice's 'lllk and suceessive sacrifices by Goslin and Myer earnzZ . run off the right-hander in round one. In the fourth Judge and Bluege singled with two down and both crossed when Smith ran into left near the chalkline and dropped Spencer’s loft. Two unearned runs. Thereafter the Nationals had several chances to score, but always found Lyons too strong for them in pinches.

OUISVILLE, Ky., May 12.—Breez- ing Through and Buckeye Poet, Col. E. R. Bradley's Derby eligibles, arrived at Churchill Downs from Lexington yesterday. The pair appeared fit and in the best of condition after the trip from Idle Four Farm. Bradley ecntries have run one- two in two former Derbies. The Bradley pair probably will be entered in a mile race for 3-year-olds Tuesday, in which Johnson N. Camden's Sydney and the Southland Stable's Playtime are expected to run. Gallant Fox, winner of the Preakness, was expected to arrive from the East today, as were Ned O, Crack Brigade and Gone Away. Gallant Fox is the Belair Stud Derby hbpe and will be saddled by Earle Sande, premier jockey, who rode him to victory in the Preakness. Crack Brigade, owned by Dr. T. M. Cassidy, ran second to Gallant Fox in the Maryland classic. Ned O. is owned by Buck Foreman and Gone Away by Willlam Zeigler. Small Field Expected. Track gossip here today was that only 12 thoroughbreds would start in the Derby Saturday, a small number com- pared to the entry lists of recent years. In addition to those above mentioned, the most likely starters appeared to be E. F. Prichard’s Tannerg, the Audley Farm's Gallant Knight, the Sully Lake Stable's High Foot, J. B. Respess’ Busy and the Three D's Stock Farms Kilkerry. Others mentioned as possible starters were P. H. Joyce's Dick O'Hara, Hieatt Brothers' Star Lassie and Hal Price Headley's dark entry. Owners of Prince Atheling, Billy Champ, Roll 'Em Down, Stock Market and Alcibiades have an- nounced that they would not start in the Derby because of recent poor showlnn. ALEXANDRIA PITCHER HURLS NO-HIT GAME ALEXANDRIA, May 12.—Curley Dolph, Colonial A. C. mound ace, turned in the first no-hit game pitched in the unlimited class here in many seasons when his elub downed the No. 5 Engine Company nine of the Alexandria Fire D!pll’tmcl:t, 5 to 0, on Guckert's Field. Teammates' errors cost Dolph a no-hit, no-run decision over the Firemen, the loser’s runs coming as & result of mis- in the ninth. Dolph out 21 batters. Potter collected three hits for the Colonials, while two teammates, Davis and Billy Lynch, each garnered three. Del Ray A. C. was sunk by the Columbia Heights A. C., 5 to 0, on Ed- ward Duncan Field with three local pitchers being rapped for 15 hits by the Washingtonians. Keefer, with four hits, and Ruppert, with two, were the chief alien offenders. Von Deck’s glll?le was Del Ray's best attack fea- % ‘Woodlawn A. C. downed the Cherry- dale Pire Department, 9 to 3, at Arling- ton and Jefferson district Fire Depart- ment took a forfeit from the Bauserman Motor Co. in the Virginia section of the Capital City League. Several Bauserman regulars were unable to ap- pear and the Motorists forfeited the game scheduled at Virginia Highlands. King, Woodlawn pitcher, kept Cherry- dale’s eight hits well separated, while his teammates counted in every inning but the second, fifth and seventh to win. A home run by Knight and triples by Providence and Ryan were great helps in the Woodlawn scoring. Moore stole home for the winners.

Like Champs In Victory Over Crack Celtics Y JACK ALLEN, Stafr Carremondem. of The Star. LEXANDRIA, Va., May 12.—1It looks like the Northern Red Birds for the unlimited cham- pionship of Washington and the Naticnal Capital's environs. It may be early in the campaign to make such a prediction, but “Tots” Long’s boys look the part. St. Mary’s Celtics fell before the Birds by 6 to 5 in a thrilling see-saw battle at Baggett's Park, when their de- fense lowered for a moment in the ninth inning. The decision gave the Washington performers their fifth straight triumph and a verdict over the team which last year won the Virginia semipro title and has won from several the Capital’s leading clubs this sea- son. Lefty Jewett and Charley Horne, 18-year-old Celtic twirler, worked in admirable fashion on the mound for their respective teams, with a pair of glaring breaks in the ninth inning aid- ing Jewett in beating his more youthful opponent. Horne fanned seven men and granted nine hits, several of the scratch variety, while Jewett was hit eight times and fanned three. In the ninth, with one out. Long hoisted an easy fly over second base. Langford fell down going after the ball, and Long was safe. Long stole second, and Harding walked. Jewett rolled to Dreifus, and the stage was set for a double play, but Brenner dropped Drei- fus’ throw and Long and Harding scored with Jewett dashing on to second. Din- gle doubled, Jewett scoring. The Celtics tried vainly to even the score in their half, but after Brenner walked and scored on Dreifus’ double they were re- tired in order and the game was over. Long and Jewett, with a pair of sin- gles, led the Northerns’ offensive, while Ludlow hit a home run and a single and Russell Kidwell two doubles to top the Celtics. Ballston A. C. won over the Mohawk A. C. of Washington, 9 to 8, at Ballston in a 15-inning battle when the Arling- ton County tossers put over a run after the two clubs had matched each other tally for tally all afternoon. The scoring was uncanny, with the two nines each pushing over a run in the first, two in the fourth, three in the eighth and two in the ninth. Lewis, Ballston pitcher, doubled Mc- Quinn home to win his own game in the fifteenth. Ballston drove out 20 hits, with Cop- page getting four, McQuinn and John- son three each and Lewls, Herrity and Rosenberger two apiece. MeQuinn's double was the only extra base hit of the game. Bailey and Hayes evenly divided four of the Hawks' 11 hits. ‘Woodward School of ‘Washington will play Alexandria here Wednesday on Haydon Field and George Mason High League totals—National, 115; Ameri- l School diamond disporters Friday after- noon at 3:30 o'clock on Edward Duncan Standings in Major Leagues National League ¥ l‘l‘lll'MYl l“m.u. ek, 9: Chica lnelkim 1%, Tatiary \'m SUBINYs Y, Bhimdeiniia. 4 STANDING OF THE CLU New E] g 3 H H 14 82 | New York . =3 11811, 11 3l | 3121 1 0/—I 31 8/131.381 | Philadeiphis 1.0 +1701 01311 1/ 0/ 3/—I 6141.300 GAMES 'mlu!

BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR., clated Press Sports Writer. 7HEN a team that has / been having a hard time holding a placeg among the league leaders, .al- though it holds the club batting lead, and onc which I=as stretched a winning streak about as far as possible get together, something is bound to happen. It did yes- terday. when the Cleveland In- dians entertained the Philadel- phia Athletics and an overflow crowd of Cleveland fans. The Indians*have shown plenty of hite ting power all season, while the Ath- letics had o bad beating coming to them after winning 9 out of 10 games. The beating was inflicted to the tune of 25 to 7. by far the biggest sccre of the major league seeson. Cleveland started by clubbing Ed Rommel from the mound with five hits and three runs in the first inning, and they kept improving this pace, scoring in every inning up to the seventh, and collezting 25 hits. Nine of the blows were doubles, and some might have gone for more bases except for the ground rules. Wesley Ferrell held the world cham- pions to four hits in his six innings on the mound. He allowed five runs, but his mates beat that in two different in- nings, getting seven in the fourth and six in the sixth. Robins Also Slug. Cleveland’s batting feat stood out on a day of rather light hitting. The only it was Brooklyn’s the Pittsburgh ‘The Robihs made 18 hits for third successive victory in the serics, while Dazzy Vance held Pitts- burgh to four. The game put Brooklyn in third place in the Naticnal League, drorping Pmsburgh into a three-way tic for fourth. The St. Louis Cardinals' made 25 hits, but they had to win both ends of a dou- ble header from the Boston Braves to do it. The scores were 5 to 3 and 7 to 6, carrying the Cardinals to six successive victories and Boston to as many defeats Jess Haines pitched his first full game of the year in beating out Harry Seibold in the opener.
